FAQs

At what point should we be concerned about period pain?

We screen for concerning features including very heavy bleeding, severe pain unresponsive to standard treatment, and symptoms suggesting underlying conditions.

Not always. Hormonal contraception is prescribed only when clinically indicated and desired by the patient and family.

Can exercise help menstrual cramps?

Yes. Tailored movement and therapeutic exercise can significantly reduce menstrual symptoms.
